Found this place while on a trip. Absolutely fantastic fried fish and chips. My wife and I both…read morehad the Haddock, and couldn't have been more impressed. Flavorful, moist fish, absolutely FRESH, with a crispy crust that you will want to come back for again and again. A 2 piece meal is HUGE -- definitely worth the very reasonable price. To top it off, the owner and staff are incredibly friendly and care about the service and the product they provide. Do not miss out on this gem!

Several friends recommended Hammerhead's for fish and chips, so I thought I would give it a try…read more Here's my feedback: - The cod was cooked nicely. Not dry nor greasy - The chips were dry - The gravy was really thick and lumpy - According to the website, the 2 pieces of cods cost $29.50. I placed 3 orders of cods and chips. I also ordered a large gravy at $3. Somehow the math doesn't add up in the receipt - According to the website picture, there's slaws, but I didn't get any. A friend told me afterward that slaws are separate. Then I think they should exclude the slaw from the pic - No plastic utentils nor condiments were included Maybe this is a case of miscommunication. But for $30, the quality of the cooking should be good at least.

This place has REALLY good reviews. Given the surrounding neighbourhood, I was a little hesitant to…read morestop on by but figured I'd give it a shot; It could be a hidden gem. It really is a blast from the past. Walking into 'cheers' and everyone knows your name. We were outsiders, but were greeted with a smile by the sweet lady behind the counter. A couple patrons also said hello. Unsure of where to sit we chose a small table off to the side and browsed the daily specials on the wall. Person after person strolled on in, and the woman behind the counter knew each ones drink order off by heart and already had it ready to go for them. Service like that is definitely something special in today's day and age. Prices are VERY cheap. $4.50 for draft beer, $12 for halibut tacos, $7.75 for a loaded banquet burger. Personally, food was nothing spectacular; At least what we had. I was definitely full and it tasted ok. I do want to come back and give some of their other dishes a try. Especially since they're homemade and many dishes have good reviews. If you're looking for quality service with cheap beer and eats, this definitely place is definitely worth checking out.

This location does gluten free, so definitely worth looking into if you need to/ are avoiding gluten. I wasn't craving something so deep fried so I got the shrimp po-boy. The fish and chips my bf ordered were delicious. Good fry, the fries tasted good, and the vinegar coselaw was good. The po boy wasn't as great. The shrimp were cooked beautifully but the bun was cut completely open, so you get the top bread and bottom bread separated. It was impossible to eat. As soon as I picked up the roll, the structural integrity failed and all my "stuffings" fell onto the plate. It was no fun eating with the fork and knife. Flavours were good though. The creamy coselaw was not my cup of tea. It was very mayo-y, which was a bit difficult for me to enjoy. I think it needed a little something citrus to brighten it up. I also was looking forward to my brussel sprouts, which were unfortunately forgotten and I never ended up getting them. By the end, it wasn't on my bill either so I think they just kept forgetting about them. They were definitely available though because someone at our table ordered them to-go. Overall, service was friendly. If you're in the area and looking for some fish and chips to hit the spot, this might be the place for you.

This had a good mixture of pistachio and almond flavours. It was mainly almond ice cream with pistachio pieces. The only difficulty is that 30% of the pieces were a little too big for the straw; probably this flavour was never meant to be used as a milkshake. I had to take tge straw out and such out the pieces from the other end. Review 2025-255

As soon as I walked in, I was shocked at how far it had deteriorated to the point of disgusting. Ceiling tiles were falling down, dead flies in all the light fixtures in the ceiling, cracked seats with upholstery stuffing protruding and just a general feeling of filth and decay. I was ashamed and apologized to my friend, as we left. What an embarrassment to the city and people who have supported this business over the years. This place needs a major overhaul to bring it back to the place we all knew and loved. Because as it stands, this place is a dump!!!!
